Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound uncooked fettuccine or linguine
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, sliced into strips
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 24 ounces jar Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables broccoli, carrots, peas
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Chopped parsley for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine until al dente, about 8–10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken strips with salt and pepper and sauté until golden and cooked through, about 5–6 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and mixed vegetables. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until softened.
  4. Pour in the jarred Alfredo sauce and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet, then add cooked pasta. Toss to coat evenly in the creamy sauce.
  6. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley on top. Serve hot for a comforting weeknight dinner.
